How the light from the sun affects the colors of what you're seeing and what you're painting is the topic of Dianne Mize's quick tip this week. www.diannemize.com
Thank you so much for another great lesson. I think that depicting light is my favorite thing about painting, so this quick tips always makes me grab a notebook to better remember what you've said ❤️
I so appreciate that you are teaching me the techniques and I can go and test and achieve. Thank you. It is going to take some practice but I feel empowered. Your knowledge and talent for teaching is amazing. Best wishes.
Wow Dianne your knowledge is immense and the way you impart it is amazing...I congratulate you and thankyou for sharing it.A salute to you and my love to you.. You are the greatest art teacher ever
Thank you for another wonderful lesson. I don’t know what I would do without you! As you are kind to request questions, I would like to put the concept of ‘Tangents’ to you. I was watching a painting show on PBS and the artist pointed out something that didn’t look right to me also, and he said three lines were intersecting and that he must move one. He was using oil, so he easily lowered the roof line of the furthest building and bingo! The building receded, and the whole painting looking ‘true’ again. I tried to google this ‘faux pas’ but haven’t found a satisfactory explanation. I feel cheeky asking, but you invite us to, so this is my request. I know you will explain it in a way that even I can understand! Thanks again for your wonderful channel and website and weekly emails. You are very dear to me.
Thanks, Liana. Tangents is one of my favorite topics so I will certainly put your request on our schedule. We film these several weeks in advance, so it will be mid-to-late September before it appears, but stay tuned. In the meantime, a tangent is any place in a composition where two things touch in a way that causes them to seem joined uncomfortably. Oh, and don't ever feel hesitant about requesting a Tip. It's the viewers' requests that make these things possible.
Thank you so much for sharing your knowledge Dianne! I am currently learning painting with acrylics where paint is drying a lot faster. Would you recommend using oil paint when learning color mixing to have more time adjusting colors?
Not necessarily. Learning how to use color can be done as easily in one medium as another. I think it's best to learn color with the medium with which you feel most comfortable.
I love how thoroughly you explained everything. There wasn’t an assumption that the viewer is supposed to already know these things which I find was my biggest problem while learning back in the day. What a wonderful video ❤️
Diane I have sporadically watched you over the years. Up until this point in time your instruction has been , although enjoyable, way over my ability to absorb. I believe I have finally reached the point of understanding! The actual science behind color mixing, matching, seeing and knowledge of the actual paint ( based on manufacturers variations) is soo much more clear to me! I will no longer just "trust my instincts" --leading to much frustration and inefficiency! I am sure painting will be more pleasurable. I have never had a class other than UTube instruction but your clases have been a gift to this now 81 year old! Thank you so very much from the bottom of my heart :)
Thanks for sharing this, Joyce. Learning something new always requires learning certain basics before we can understand how they work. A carpenter has trouble driving a nail without bending it if he/she doesn't first learn the basics of working with a hammer. Enjoy the journey!
Okay! I'm switching from watercolour to acrylics! There's so much control on what you want to create, especially the values! Watercolour gets frustrating!🙄
@@IntheStudioArtInstruction You're awesome! I actually tried these with watercolor and did a monochrome seascape. It came out well(well in terms of water color beginner scales), like you said, it does require quite a lot more patience than any other medium I guess!
